Southern Utah is full of landmarks that tell stories about our history, our people, and our pride in this beautiful region. One of those symbols is the Utah Tech Bison Statue project, which continues to grow as new communities welcome these works of art.
This week, we learned that Santa Clara will soon add its own bison to the collection. Public art like this does more than decorate a street corner—it brings people together. It gives us something to celebrate, something that connects us, and something that reflects the resilience and strength of Southern Utah.
We feel a special connection to this project because the Utah Tech Bison Statue in front of our very own building was one of the first to be branded with the new university name. Each day, it serves as a reminder of how art, education, and community spirit come together to shape our shared spaces.
At Injury Smart Law, a St. George personal injury law firm, we believe small towns thrive when neighbors show up for one another—whether by supporting local businesses, attending community events, volunteering, or even simply appreciating projects like the bison statues. Each new statue is more than just a piece of art; it’s a symbol of unity and pride.
As Santa Clara prepares to welcome its own Utah Tech Bison Statue, we’re reminded that when we invest in our community—through art, kindness, or support for one another—we build a stronger, brighter future for Southern Utah.
